I would love a sneaky anti cheating system, where if you are detected the game behind the scenes starts making everyone else's shot at you 100% headshots ๐Ÿ˜‚ so there you are, trying to cheat, but you can't get a single shot off because stray bullets are just homing at your noggen!

Or even better, it forces a banana suit on you, so you can carry on playing but everyone knows who you are.

I love the hilarousness of the idea, but unfortunately aimbots can just auto-fire at the first pixel, while humans won't even register that you appeared for "long" milliseconds. However, if the game can force other people's shots at you then I guess it can also force your shots to miss.
